A Love Rekindled (Nancy and Bruce) novel Chapter 48

Not long after seeing Kate off, Cindy left early, leaving me and Caroline to be the only ones tearing our hair out.

"They probably won't withdraw their investment," I recalled Kate's words about Bruce. "He will calm the storm down for Cindy's sake."

Caroline didn't agree with me. "So what if he does? Cindy undermined us today. She could easily claim credit for our work tomorrow. In my opinion, we need to prepare for the worst."

Caroline meant that they should look for other investors.

But Richard didn't seem interested. Who else could we approach?

"I heard Samuel knows some people. I want to ask him for help," Caroline piped up.

I was surprised. "Are you still in contact with him?"

Caroline avoided my gaze. "Well, he does well when it comes to… that."

Since it was for the project, I agreed, "Let's give it a try."

For the next two days, Caroline was busy meeting with Samuel.

Samuel was popular in Cloudons before and had quite a wide network. He even knew some foreign investors. More importantly, he promised to help.

Caroline and I were on edge and didn't dare to relax even for a moment.

But then, John's call came again. "Nance, Mr. Harold wants you and Ms. Whittaker to come to Roeval right away."

This was sudden.

I probed, "Did he say what it's about?"

"He didn't. But judging from Mr. Harold's expression..." John trailed off.

Caroline and I felt a headache coming on. We didn't know what Bruce was up to.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the president's office.
